Yes I took history. Unions were started to stop the abuse of children being used in the labor force. They’ve outlived their usefulness in my opinion. We have no hockey this season and basketball last season. Our education system is all screwed up because of unions. Now they are threatening to strike and mess up shipping and delivery of vital items.

Obama should fire thier asses like Reagan did with the ATC. The are vital to economic activity and should not have that kind of power. I know a guy that has a “low show” job in Port Newark….why? seniority. Also because they can.

The issues are known as verified by both parties in the Long Beach/LA strike. 800 clerical office employees making an average of $41/hr and $165,000+ with benefits. Some well over $200,000 per year. I can hire several extremely well trained CSR’s in my part of Texas for that. Their strike was all about protecting union representation and the succession of their jobs. Agent 2 is right. Fire the bunch and replace them as Reagan did.
